A moderator will likely move your post there, but there is a whole sub forum for insurance:

We used insuremytrip.com.  Around $550.00. That was for 17 nights, airfare, 5 night hotel stay and Covid coverage. We are 69 and 72 years old.  If cancel for any reason was included it would have been about another $200 . This was for Sep/Oct 2022.

What others paid will be irrelevant as it will vary as it is based on price and age.  A $2000 cruise will cost a lot less for insurance than a $5000 cruise

Prior to Covid we frequently booked cruises with a TA company who offered free insurance .

I always use Allianz. I usually don't take the Cancel For Any Reason option but took it for my last family cruise in June. I had to file a claim because my oldest and his GF broke up 3 weeks before the cruise and he couldn't get a friend to fill on on short notice. I filed the claim with them online on 6/5. The money was in my bank account on 6/15. It helped that RCI gave me a letter that spelled out my costs, how much they returned (port fees and taxes), and how much they retained.

Probably said a million times before:

 

-- 2+ major vacations a year, buy an annual policy from someone like Allianz

-- Check the benefits on your credit card, you might be surprised what you find

Also check your current medical benefits.  I was going to buy a GeoBlue annual policy but it turns out I have GeoBlue coverage with my employer's Blue Cross insurance.
